I just lay the worms on the feeding rock and they go to town. If one is eating faster than another, I sometimes get that scene from "Lady and the Tramp" where they are eating spaghetti.

Good Luck, I think you will find that they like them, very much.

I do the same.....put them on the feeding rock. I've seen Pio scraping under a piece of slate, when outside looking for worms.

And, if you are keeping your redfoot's habitat moist, as you should be, then the escaped worms will just dig down and stay alive.
